Myntra 10x rewards using SmartBuy till 17th Dec24 for HDFC Infinia and Dinner Cards

 

[Hisoka]

1x base + 4x bonus points for flights 5x.
But ideally buy airtickets using points, not by card

I didn't have enough points so thought to be a waste of 99rs + GST on redemption. Anyway they'll be used in future flights
Even if it's 1X + 4X, it should be 750*4 = 3000 points and not 2600. What's the total amount of points I should get on this purchase?

Regalia has 4 RPs / 150. Hence normal RPs (= 22557 / 150 = 150.38) will be 150*4 = 600 RPs. Also Regalia has daily cap of 2000 accelerated RPs on Smartbuy. Hence you got 2600 points instead of 3000 RPs.

Since when HDFC started charging 99+gst for flight/hotel point redemption?

 

[anujdit]

2 days back, i redeemed the points against hotel booking and no charges are applied for me. (Infinia points)

 

[harshgupta940]

Also if we cancel an order is there any option to get the refund in Myntra Credits instead of Card?

If Myntra does that, they will have to pay MDR commission to HDFC

Thanks! This answers my question

It showed on the final payment page that on successful redemption of points 99+gst fees would be applicable

Except for DCB and infinia, HDFC always charged 99+gst on flight/hotels for smartbuy point redemption. Nothing new, going on for some years.

It has always been there as far as i know. Using HDFC cards since March 2023

Ok as I am a DCB user that's why I am only aware that a fee is charged when you redeem points for vouchers etc.

But when I book Hotel/Flight using points on DCB no fee is charged. Its same for Infinia as well.

It will open doors for misuse and promote devaluation.

 

[samba113]

is it working for gold coins ?

In case of any cancellation of any smart buy purchase, the money will get refunded to your HDFC card only

 

[drsel]

is it working for gold coins ?

Not valid for gold coins or any voucher of Myntra

 

[harshgupta940]

Yes many have confirmed that it's working, try and see otp page if it shows "Myntra via Smartbuy" then you are good.

But beware as if reconciliation happens later and order info is shared by myntra to hdfc then the RPs may cancel. (Low Possibility of that)

Make Sure you have not exhausted your 15000 points limit for Infinia for the month of December

But has anyone received even 5x on settlement of the transaction?
